Felix Dobbert has been devoting himself to flowers in his photographs since 2014. The publication presents four very different series. The medium of photography itself is interrogated again and again when, for instance, the active participation of algorithms in designing the pictures is addressed or when three-dimensional effects are produced directly by apps. The range extends from pictures of the past to minimalist still lifes that link the artificiality of our consumer world with the artificial aesthetics of hydrangea: “Natural, but extremely artificial, more leaf than bloom, and documented with no superficial symbolism.” Text in English and German.

Kunstgeschichte und Bildung: Mit der Sektion zu diesem Thema auf dem 31. Kunsthistorikertag in Wurzburg 2011 hat sich der Verband Deutscher Kunsthistoriker vorgenommen, nach dem Beitrag und nach der Verantwortung der Kunstgeschichte sowie nach dem Potential der Kunstwerke in Bildungsprozessen zu fragen. Der Band umfasst Beitrage zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, zum Verhaltnis von Kunstgeschichte und Kunstpadagogik sowie zu Legitimation und Erfordernissen von Kunstgeschichte in Bildungskontexten und stellt schliesslich Best-practice-Beispiele kunstgeschichtlicher Bildung vor

The 75th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz was commemorated in 2020. While the final survivors are now rapidly disappearing, mass tourism phenomena can be perceived in Auschwitz at the same time. In light of these changes, it is important to discuss the concept of remembrance and also to ask: What do the crowds of visitors see? In 2017 and 2018, Frederic Mougenot photographed the two extermination camps and locations in the so-called "Interessengebiet" (area of interest), which was largely forgotten after 1945. What is thus shown in the photographs is an invisible boundary that separates the culture of remembrance from gradual disappearance.
